THE MINDSET TREE
In Zambia, poverty has escalated rapidly and it has gone out of
control. This has affected the mindsets of people in poverty and
it has forced them to take part in deforestation so that they can
make ends meet. As a youth I believe I have the power to change

activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal
and petroleum, have significantly increased atmospheric
concentrations of greenhouse gases (gases such as carbon
dioxide that trap solar radiation). The continued build-up of
these gases in the atmosphere is expected to cause major
disruptions to the global climate system, including rising
average surface temperatures, rising sea levels caused b...

having babies. DDT prevented the chicks from hatching. She wrote
a book called Silent Spring to warn about the dangers of
DDT.
Pollution happens when chemicals t...
